Purchased G-Games wheels

**Nomar06** · 08-06-2006, 11:10 PM

Couldn't pass up a great deal, I think, on some 18x7.5 Gold G-Games 2-peice Wolf wheels.
Here are the wheels:

Thanks to Rippars this is what they will look like, some what. It was a quick PS.

Any opinions? I know poeple either hate or love gold wheels, so to each their own opinion. I will be having some new Si wheels for sale with the michelin tires for sale soon, so far only 750 miles on them.

White and Gold always look good. Like some sort of marshmallowy caramel candyl

My wife has the same wheels except in gunmetal with polished lip on her Celica. Odds are they'll end up on my Civic sooner or later.

LOL.. look @ the pic of the rim.. see any suggestions as to where to buy?
I think thats the only place that sells them..

SIpimpin13 · 08-07-2006, 05:22 PM

looks good...the PS is hilarious!

I don't like it. In general I'm not a fan of silver lipped rims unless it makes the car two-tone. Black cars with blacks rims w/ silver polished lip works because there's essentially two colors on the car: black and silver.

With your Tafetta, you have the white, plus the silver, plus the gold, making the color scheme noisy. If you go gold I suggest just getting gold rims. It makes the car look a lot cleaner.

It's the only brand name place that sells them. Others no name sites on the web with same or higher prices.

This PS looks alot better. Pretty nice setup, but no decal on the side.

those rims are larger on that last pic bro. they should look good i would of prolly done 19's. the wheel wells in our civics are HUGE.

**Nomar06** · 08-08-2006, 01:05 PM

I would gone with 19's but in my opinion they are too big. I like the look of the 18's. Eventually ill do a drop. But $150 a wheels isnt bad for rays.

Ep3racer954 · 08-08-2006, 07:44 PM

yea where did you get them!?!?!

***CaliGuy*** · 08-08-2006, 07:51 PM

I like the style of the wheels, but not the color...then again I was never a big gold fan...If you got a bargain good for you...

**Nomar06** · 08-08-2006, 11:09 PM

They are used wheels. Only one of the wheels has a small scrach on the lip. Got them form Tire direct auction of ebay. They will be here in about 5 days. Will get pics once they arrive. Going tire shoppin tomorrow but most likely end up buying tires online. Looking at Toyo Proxies 4 in a 215/35/18. Around $135 each.
Here's the scratch

Any ideas on getting a scratch fixed on a lip? Seen the little ads on the back of car mags about fixing lips and bent wheels. Is it possible?

**Nomar06** · 08-15-2006, 09:09 PM

Here are my wheels!!!!
